Review of the Swiss men's watch Oris TT1 Day Date 735-7651-41-66RS

Oris is only mechanical and only Swiss watches. This venerable stamp is 110 years old. The term in the modern world is not small. Well, and one more thing - there is quite a solid company here: Nico Hulkenberg, Nico Rosberg, Mark Webber, Kazuki Nakajima, Allan McNish, Carlos Coste, Roman Frischknecht, Louis Armstrong, Bob Dylan at different times preferred Swiss Oris watches.

Sports, diving, culture and motor racing have always fascinated Oris watchmakers. In 2003, Oris became the sponsor and exclusive watch supplier of the Williams Formula One Team. The model, which will be discussed today, is designed specifically for fans of Formula 1.

And the question may immediately arise: are they completely ... white? (Although we note that this model is also released in black). How can you distinguish the arrows at high speeds, because you can make a mistake! Oh yes, you apparently do not know the properties of white.

White is not a neutral color at all. This is the color of calmness - bright, but not flashy. Walter Isaacson. Biography of Steve Jobs.

All marks, numbers and inscriptions are convex, embossed. Even if they were made black, they would be less noticeable. The human eye distinguishes flat contrasting marks much worse than plain embossed marks on a white background! For the same purpose, the arrows are slightly inclined just at an angle convenient for the driver. A quick glance at the clock seems to "take a picture" of the exact time. By the way, the hands with luminous coating - Superluminova BG W9 are perfectly visible in the dark.

Caliber Oris 735 based on the legendary ETA SW 220. The case back is transparent (mineral glass) – and screw-down. You can admire the signature red self-winding rotor. The body is made of steel.

And the outer glass is sapphire, with an anti-reflective coating. Clearly at the 3 o'clock mark is a calendar with the date and day of the week. The ceramic bezel is graduated in seconds. There is nothing superfluous and distracting here. During the race, complications are clearly useless ...

The soft and comfortable white rubber strap - or rather the folding clasp bracelet - is not just a nod to design - it's the perfect shock absorber. The dimensions of Oris watches are, of course, masculine: the case is 43 mm in diameter, 11,5 mm thick. By the way, the length of the strap is 22 centimeters.

Perhaps someone will think that white is not at all for men. Not at all. If we talk about modern fashion trends, then they strongly recommend white watches. And it doesn't matter what time of year it is. With a snow-white watch, you are always on the right wave!
